Good stories made great by an excellent narrator. You made the stories come alive. By far, the best story teller I have come across. Bravo !

So cool to hear good classic sci-fi. How would you like to try out the Wyndham shorties, Outward urge, Dumb martian, etc, etc, etc. Go on.. give it a go.

[@storiesfromthesky]

This era is full of some absolute gems. I'd love to do some Wyndham short stories, but unfortunately I can't seem to find any in the public domain. Apologies!

“Four super depressing sci fi stories” would be a better title.

[@storiesfromthesky]

They are quite dark, you're right.

I like the long play format compilation of short stories - one day might be worth experimenting with timing ads between the stories.
